I think the Lenox TSV falls short. For me, it's the green on the pieces. Much of it looks like lime or neon green, and just not elegant for Christmas like Lenox should be. 

 

The size of the ornaments, the actual characters, the quality of the painting, and the price are great, but they come off looking more juvenile than elegant (which is great for giving to kids!). 

 

My mom bought last years TSV in the clear crystal, and gave them to various people. They were much more what Lenox is supposed to be, in my opinion.

 

Anyone interested in these?

They are a pass for me too.  I used to like the set of 5 ornaments put out by Mr. Christmas every year but haven't seen them so far.  I love Lenox but these just don't scream out at me to take them home.

They are not for me.  I just don't need or want them and have no one in mind to give as gifts to.  I'm sure a lot of people will love them though.

Re: Lenox TSV, Anyone buying?

I'm not buying for two reasons.  I do not need more ornaments and on TV they do not look like Lenox high quality.  There is something about them that looks cheap but I'm not sure what it us.

Re: Lenox TSV, Anyone buying?

I THINK these are a style that has been produced for several years. IF it is, the colors are quite traditional. The greens are OK.
I am buying one set but not my usual multiples.
I thought last year's were quite pretty in person.

Re: Lenox TSV, Anyone buying?

Check out the other thread that says these were dated 2014.

 

If you love Lenox, head to their website. They offer their own EP with a cc, too. Works just as here, I've never had a problem.

I saw the date during the presentation too.  Would be curious to hear what CS said about that.

Re: Lenox TSV, Anyone buying?

Ladies.....I just posted on that thread...I have three sets of these ornaments...and I opened each one....there is NO DATES on them...not the ornament....nor the boxes....no where are there any dates...

 

By the way...they are quite cute...well made...not sure they could be a stand alone gift...other then for a little child...but a nice gift to go with something else....like a gift card...or money....tied to the bow of the bigger gift.....

Re: Lenox TSV, Anyone buying?

I think they are too small to really be a nice gift. A pass for me too.
